Hi, Mark
   Will you please attach the output of acpidump on bug 11287?
   Of course it will be great if you can enable CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG and
CONFIG_CPUFREQ_DEBUG in kernel configuration  and boot the system with
the option of "cpufreq.debug=7 acpi.debug_layer=0x01010000
acpi.debug_level=0x17".
   After the system is booted, please attach the output of dmesg.
   Please do the above test on both kernel 2.6.27-rc1 and 2.6.27-rc2.

Thanks.
